Well you prefaced your last post with saying that the Primes gave their life to protect the Matrix from the Fallen. That sounds pretty magicy. Plus, although this is meant to be more on the side of realistic, there still is a lot of heavy sci-fi/fantasy elements.

As long as it is on par or better than the first...I will be good.

Oh, well the sacrificing their lives is literally just melting themselves around it so it can't be obtained.
